Question do you still have nick names

Do you still have nick names for your child?

now that they are far from babies... do you still call them those baby names or has your nick names morphed into other things?

do you still use 'affectionate' names like "sweet pea"?

what do you call your baby??

We still call Sarah "sweet pea" or "sweety pie"
and the occasional "princess".
but it's mostly "sarah"

If I ever call my kids by the same thing two times in a row it's because they are in serious trouble.

Jacob is often called "Boo" "Monkey-butt" "Bubba" just about anything but Jacob.

Abby is "Boo-boo-gail" "Crabby-gail" "Boo-boo-la" you get the idea- anything but their names.

I think that keeping nicknames is great. there is a reason why you do that and it must suite them

I used to call him Layden baby. I don't do that anymore. Now if I call him anything besides his name, its "dear".

We still call Natalee Pooh Girl. I've had to learn to call her Natalee in public because she gives me dirty looks if I don't.
